TAKE ACTION NOW to protect SNAP, Medicaid, & housing assistance!

TAKE ACTION NOW to protect SNAP and Medicaid!

Right on the heels of passing the largest, most unpopular tax scam in decades, Republicans are now pivoting to take away health care, nutrition assistance, and affordable housing that we, and our economy, desperately need. How? They are trying to restrict important programs like Medicaid, SNAP, and housing assistance when families aren’t working or in training – even if they are sick, caring for young children or for family members who have disabilities or are ill, or dealing with a family crisis.

**Sign our letter NOW calling on President Trump and the U.S. Congress to protect the health care, nutrition, and housing our families and economy need in order to thrive.

Dear President Trump and Members of Congress,

Protect the health care, nutrition, and housing programs that lift up our families and economy.

Some lawmakers are proposing to add strict work-related requirements to programs that provide critical supports to millions of families to help them meet basic needs. Taking away someone’s health care, food, or housing because they are unemployed or face significant health or other barriers to work won’t help them find work any faster, nor will it help them keep the job they have.

Imposing unnecessary and unhelpful barriers to vital health care, nutrition, and housing assistance programs only sets our families and economy back. This would disproportionately affect low-income families who are just trying to get by and pull themselves out of poverty. No one should be punished for caring for a loved one, being unemployed, or having a chronic illness or disability that prevents them from having regular employment or engage in prescribed work-related activities that may not fit their circumstances. Our children will be affected as well as our economy.

Instead we should be funding job creation and training programs, raising wages, ensuring high-quality, affordable childcare, and passing paid family and medical leave so we can care for ourselves and our loved ones when they need us most and strengthening health care, housing, and nutrition programs.

Stand with me and protect the programs that matter most to our families’ health care, nutrition, and well-being.

Sincerely,
